PHOENIX -- Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud and second baseman Dilson Herrera both took significant steps forward in their recoveries from broken fingers on Thursday, playing five innings apiece for Class A St. Lucie.

D'Arnaud, who began a rehab assignment late last month only to suffer a setback and cut it short, finished 1-for-2 with a walk. He has been on the disabled list since April 20 with a fractured right pinkie, batting .317 with two homers in 11 games at the time of his injury.
